Tricon Capital Group Inc. announced the acquisition of a 550 unit portfolio of homes in Charlotte, North Carolina for USD 26 million. The portfolio was assembled over several decades by a private individual and has an occupancy rate of approximately 95%. Based on current rents in place and historical operating expenses, the purchase price equates to a cap rate of over 12.5% (before maintenance/capex reserves).

Tricon is entering Charlotte in partnership with Lake Success Living, which has been active in Southeast Florida (Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties) since 2009 and in Charlotte since mid-2012.
